FAQs

Are EcoGloves safe for food handling and compostable after use? +

Yes, EcoGloves are food-safe and tested to meet food-handling compliance standards, making them a trusted choice for kitchens and food service operations. Select styles are compostable after use, so they can complete their lifecycle responsibly rather than ending up in a landfill.

What thickness should I choose? +

For everyday use, 4–5 mil gloves offer the best balance of comfort and durability.

How long do sustainable gloves take to decompose? +

Conventional gloves can take hundreds of years to decompose, whereas compostable gloves may break down in industrial facilities within a year, and biodegradable nitrile in 3–5 years.

How do I properly dispose of biodegradable gloves to get the most environmental benefit? +

Biodegradable gloves break down most efficiently under the right conditions, such as composting facilities, where warmth, moisture, and microbial activity accelerate decomposition. EcoGloves are designed to degrade far faster than conventional synthetic gloves, and uncontaminated gloves can be directed to appropriate composting or green waste streams wherever available. Always check your local composting or waste guidelines to ensure your EcoGloves reach the end-of-life process that delivers the greatest environmental benefit.
